Section 31
I thought about this the whole time I was at work.
Star Trek: Section 31 or just Section 31
It is sort of like a cross between the premise of Alias, the moral grey areas, politics, plot and character arcs, and writing of DS9 and the cheap titillation of Enterprise.
The main story starts 1 year after the end of the Dominion War, when our S31 agent is recruited into the organisation.
This part is basically a short synopsis of her backstory:
She (no name yet, kind of looks like Amy Acker) was a Starfleet Intelligence operative, say a Lieutenant or Lt. Commander, working and living on Betazed with her lover (man or woman, don't really care). Anyway, Betazed is invaded by the Dominion, her lover is killed, and she is imprisoned. She escapes and starts up a resistance cell that commits an important piece of sabotage that allows the Feds to liberate the planet. She is offered counseling for her prison ordeal (more of that will be brought up later in the series) and is referred to someone who turns out to be Sloan and they become friends; he's sort of grooming her to become an agent without her picking up on it, as she did some pretty damn awesome shit. After the end of the war, she ends up working on Admiral Ross's ship and later is recruited into S31 by some other higher up agent in the organisation - Sloan is, of course, dead.
Anyway, in the pilot, she does her first mission and finds out that Betazed's invasion was set up by S31 for some important strategic gains during the war. So she's royally pissed off and wants to take down S31, but is still working for them so she can destroy them from the inside. Admiral Ross helps her along the way. She basically does assignments for S31 while trying to gather information and partially sabotage them without getting busted by them, since S31 are the masters of JUST AS PLANNED.
Garak, Bashir, Koval from DS9's "Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges" and a female Romulan operative in tight black leather appear as recurring characters. The TNG crew and Quark make cameos in the pilot.
I'm thinking our protagonist is a charming, happy-go-lucky character, with a sly wit, well hidden guile and cunning and some bottled up rage and PTSD that manifests itself every time we need a character development scene. Also, bisexual.
It's a series about grey area politics, characters, intrigue, espionage and deus ex machina-like plans put in motion by Alpha Quadrant superpowers. And maybe the occasional neuropressure scene with the Bellerophon's female Vulcan masseuse.
